You can sort of do this by unboosting, then writing a totally new post where you say "About that thing I just boosted, I unboosted it because it turns out that it's a load of rubbish. Here's more info..." or whatever.

It will go to the same audience that saw your boost, because they both go to your followers.

@FediTips@social.growyourown.services if you follow a non-trivial number of accounts and hashtags, the timeline is like a firehose, and you only see the current ~30 minutes, so many people are going to miss the correction if it's not a notification.

Ahhh okay, fair enough. I think quote toots would do what you're asking?

I think you can edit your quote-toot and the edit would trigger a notification for everyone who boosted your quote-toot.

(Having said that, still need to see how quoting works in the final release version though, it's still in final testing.)

However, that might be worse because you'd still be showing the boost and not everyone notices the quote section. Also boosts help posts rise up the trending section.
